CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION

Korean Patent Application No. 10-2016-0042799, filed on Apr. 7, 2016, in the Korean Intellectual Property Office, and entitled: “Organic Light-Emitting Device,” is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety.

BACKGROUND 1. Field

Embodiments relate to an organic light-emitting device.

2. Description of the Related Art

Organic light-emitting devices are self-emission devices that have wide viewing angles, high contrast ratios, short response times, and excellent brightness, driving voltage, and response speed characteristics, compared to devices in the art.

For example, an organic light-emitting device may include a first electrode disposed on a substrate, and a hole transport region, an emission layer, an electron transport region, and a second electrode, which are sequentially disposed on the first electrode. Holes provided from the first electrode may move toward the emission layer through the hole transport region, and electrons provided from the second electrode may move toward the emission layer through the electron transport region. Carriers, such as holes and electrons, recombine in the emission layer to produce excitons. These excitons transition from an excited state to a ground state, thereby generating light.
